Goodyear Belts & Hoses 23118 Timing Belt Tensioner Pulley

The Goodyear Belts & Hoses 23118 Timing Belt Tensioner (also called a timing belt tensioner pulley) is a key part of an engine's timing system. It keeps the timing belt at the correct tension.

The timing belt links the crankshaft and camshaft(s). This keeps valve movement in sync with piston movement. The tensioner presses on the belt to remove slack. That helps prevent the belt from skipping teeth on the pulleys.

Key Features:

• Made from high-quality materials for durability and consistent performance in engine use
• Machined exterior finish
• Straightforward design that is easy to install, maintain and adjust
• Keeps timing belt tension accurate, which supports belt life and engine timing
• Helps reduce wear on the timing belt

Replacing the tensioner when you replace the timing belt is a common preventative maintenance practice. It helps protect the engine from damage caused by timing belt failure.
